Customer Reviews

Finally! (5 stars)
This is by far the best internet radiostation. With background functionality it is a must-have!

Soma FM is a bully (5 stars)
It takes Pandora and Last FM out behind the school and mugs them for their lunch money. This is the one app I've been waiting for more than any other. If you like it, consider donating to the station to help keep them on the air.

Lush + Airplay = Heaven (5 stars)
It's like having your own portable hepster cocktail lounge. Best served with something infused. And a blue-cheese stuffed olive.
